The lines y = 10x + 12 and y = 112 meet at x = 10. The solution of the equation is the x-coordinate of the point where the two sides are equal.

How to work it out

  1. 1

    The goal is to get x alone. Undo the operations in the opposite order: first the addition, then the multiplication.

    10x+12=11210x + 12 = 112
  2. 2

    Subtract 12 from both sides:

    10x+12−12=112−12 ⇒ 10x=10010x + 12 - 12 = 112 - 12 \ \Rightarrow\ 10x = 100
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 10:

    10x10=10010 ⇒ x=10\frac{10x}{10} = \frac{100}{10} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 10
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 10 back into the equation.
